The human brain is very small and light (only two percent of our total body), but it needs about 20% of the oxygen that our body 11 . We can’t think well if our brain isn’t getting enough oxygen, so always 12 there is enough oxygen in the air when you need to learn or remember something.

No one can remember 13 , but everyone can learn how to improve their memory. Here are some tips – none of them can make your memory 100% perfect, but all of them are helpful:

--When you want to remember something, tell a friend about it. This way the new information becomes more memorable. Later on, 14 the conversation with your friend. It will 15

you of the information you wanted to remember.

--Don’t over-train your brain. When you’ve remembered a list of new vocabulary, stop studying. It’s good to study a lot of material for a small amount of time 16 a small amount

of material for a lot of time! But remember: you do have to practice your new vocabulary 17 !

--Our memory works well when we are asleep. If you want to remember something, go to bed and go to sleep 18 learning it.

--If you have to remember something big, 19 into smaller sections. It’s easier to remember 158526782653 if you break it into four smaller bits: 158-526-782-653.

--If you want to remember a piece of information, and you can’t, don’t get angry. Relax and tell yourself, ‘If it’s important, I’ll remember it in detail 20 ’.

One of the best ways of remembering is to make ‘pictures’ on the ‘movie-screen’ of your

mind – and it’s fun too! 21 say that our brain works a lot in pictures. So sometimes, if we want to remember new information, it helps to make a picture story. Anyone can learn to do this.

22 someone wants to go shopping for the following things:

--food for the goldfish

--batteries

--roller skates

--a vocabulary notebook

--a bottle of shampoo…

Now make a crazy story that reminds you of all the things in the right order, 23 :

Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was very hungry and was looking for FOOD. Her name was in her T-shirt in big golden letters: GOLDIE FISH. She opened the fridge, and saw it

was full of BATTERIES. Goldie was 24 . She put on her ROLLER SKATES, and tried to leave the house, but she tripped over her VOCABULARY NOTEBOOK and fell on a BOTTLE

OF SHAMPOO. The shampoo was everywhere: on the floor, on the chairs…

三、阅读理解（共25小题，每小题2分，计50分）

第一节：阅读A、B、C三篇短文，根据短文内容，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

As we all know, nobody can live without any mistakes or errors. Mistakes and errors are the disciplined true which we advance in life. Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes in the pursuit of their goals and aspirations, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.

Mistakes can be enormously valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you deprive yourself of the opportunity to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it's usually very easy to find someone else to blame, but what does that really accomplish?

Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they demand a cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the person who pays the price for that mistake.

When you make a mistake, the last thing you want to do is to run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.

When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Take full advantage of your mistakes to achieve your goals and aspirations.

26. What kind of people can succeed more easily than others in the author’s mind?

A. Only the people who are willing to achieve their goals and aspirations.

B. The people who want others to pay the price for their mistakes.

C. The people who never mind their mistakes.

D. The people who not only accept their mistakes but also make most of them.

27. What does the underlined word “last” probably mean in Paragraph 4?

A. 上一个

B. 最不合适的

C. 最后一个

D. 持续的

28. The underlined phrase “deprive yourself of the opportunity” in paragraph 2 probably

means “________”.

A. get yourself to look for the chance

B. make yourself lose the chance

C. let yourself catch the chance

D. tell yourself to miss the chance

29. What’s the value of mistakes and errors?

A. People can become wise if they make the most of mistakes and errors..

B. People can achieve their goals and aspirations if they make mistakes often.

C. People can find someone else to blame.

Have you ever heard of the famous soccer player who was named Mbappe? When he scored for France in the final of the 2018 World Cup, that future had definitely arrived.

Earlier that month, the 19-year-old young man made the cover of Time magazine, which eve n named him the “the future of football”.

Mbappe has put his heart and soul into soccer for most of his life. “I didn’t have the moments of so-called normal people during adolescence, like going out with friends, enjoying good times,” he told Time.

His har d work isn’t the only reason for his success, however. If you look at his background, you’ll see that sport is in his blood. His father is a soccer coach and his mother used to be a handball player.

Mbappe began his professional career for a lesser-known club in Monaco in 2015, but within two years, Paris St Germain paid Euro180 million (1.4 billion yuan) for Mbappe’s transfer, making him the second most expensive player in the world. He quickly proved he was worth the money by playing a big part last season, in which the club won the biggest competitions in the French league.

All players, great, good and average, have heroes. They see a star player and try to be like that player. As a child, Mbappe looked up to Cristiano Ronaldo. But if the Portuguese striker was an inspiration to him, Mbappe says he wants to be a greater star one day. Speaking to Marca newspaper, Mbappe said that he loves Ronaldo, but believes he can be better than him. “I am a competitor and a person who is very competitive and all I want to do is win, win, win,” he said.

Only the years ahead will tell whether he can succeed, but whatever Mbappe does on the pitch, it will likely be remarkable.

31. What stands for the arrival of Mbappe’s future?

A. His first appearance on the cover of Time magazine.

B. His hard work for a lesser-known club in Monaco.

C. His good mark in the final of the 2018 World Cup.

D. His wonderful performance for Paris St Germain.

32. How old is Mbappe when he started his professional career?

A. 16

B. 17

C. 18

D. 19

33. How could Mbappe prove his value of €180 million?

A. By putting his heart and soul into soccer.

B. By speaking to Marca newspaper.

C. By looking up to Cristiano Ronaldo.

D. By winning the biggest competitions in the French league as a big part.

34. How did Mbappe spend most of his adolescence?

A. Going out with friends.

B. Enjoying good times.

C. Looking up to his idol.

D. Working hard on soccer playing.

35. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

A. Cristiano Ronaldo who was an inspiration to Mbappe comes from Portuguesa.

B. Mbappe was born in a family of sports.

C. Mbappe spoke to Time magazine that he is a person who is very competitive.

D. The performance of Mbappe on the pitch will likely be remarkable.

C

To live a low-carbon life, each and every one of us is responsible for the greenhouse gases we emit in our daily actions and choices. Therefore, combating climate change is going to take the combined efforts of everyone on the planet.

The average household carbon footprint in China is 2.41 tons of carbon dioxide annually. That's enough to fill half an Olympic swimming pool.

Amazed? Well, here's how you can work to reduce it:

1. Take showers rather than baths and reduce your shower time by two minutes. This will save water and give you an extra two minutes in bed.

2. Don't purchase unnecessary clothes, and be careful about the materials you buy. Wool and cotton fabrics have a really high greenhouse gas impact. Manmade fibers such as polyester are a better choice.

3. There's no point having the heat up high while the wind's blowing in under the door or sneaking in through the window. Reseal all window frames to keep the heat in.

4. Try to buy high-quality, long-lasting products even though they may cost a little more. A laptop is more efficient than a desktop, and a small screen TV is better than a big flat-screen.

5. Only turn the water heater on when necessary, and adjust temperature controls to avoid overheating. Put a lid on a pan when boiling water.

6. When using the washing machine, be sure there's a full load and turn the temperature down if it's not really grubby.

7. The greediest home device along with the washing machine is the fridge. Make sure it's as efficient as possible by keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from the oven or heater. Don't put food in when it's still warm.

8. This is obvious, but essential: switch off all appliances when you're not using them. This includes lights.

9. Conserve energy by using efficient light bulbs. They use about one-third of the energy of normal bulbs and last 10 times as long.

10. Only print things out when necessary, and print double-sided and reduce the margins.

11. Take your own mug and cutlery to work. This saves throwing away disposable cups and containers--but that could be outweighed by washing your cutlery. So, pay attention to how you use water when washing your dishes.

12. Find out what the recycling options are in your area. Then make sure you keep items such as paper and plastic bottles separate so that they can be recycled. There are places where you can recycle electronic appliances and batteries. Make sure you find them.

13. Look for reusable, recyclable, biodegradable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!

14. Each week, choose one day when you don't eat meat. Meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long time to produce.

15. Only buy the amount of food you need and if there are leftovers, get creative. For example, make them into a soup. Ask to take food home from restaurants if there's some left, but remember to take your own container to avoid using a disposable carton.

16. Food production eats up lots of energy. When you buy food, go local rather than imported, and get fresh vegetables instead of frozen.

36. Which of the following is similar to the underlined phrase “switch off” in Tip 8?

A. put off

B. give off

C. shake off

D. turn off

37. What can we do to be greener when shopping?

A. Purchase as many wool and cotton fabrics as possible.

B. Select cheaper ones to buy in order to save money.

C. Choose disposable and imprinted things more to make our life more convenient.

D. Buy the right amount of things we need.

38. Why should we take our own mug and cutlery to work in the author’s opinion?

A. It can save throwing away things which can be used only once.

B. It can prevent the virus from spreading.

C. It can make us look tidy.

D. It can offer us things we need wherever we are.

39. Which of the following is right according to the passage?

A. We can use our washing machine whenever we want.

B. Take baths often just in case that we can’t feel comfortable enough.

C. The pot cover should be used when boiling water.

D. Cooking meat has nothing to do with low-carbon life.

40. Choose a best title for this passage.

A. How to conserve energy

B. How to love a low-carbon life

C. How to deal with the leftovers

D. How to use our home device

Well, that's for you to decide really. Ready for something you would never expect? Let's do this.

Listed below are three of top 10 unconventional(非常规的) and most bizarre sports that people play around the world.

Dog Surfing – Most Bizarre Sports

When we say a dog is a man's best friend, we didn't realize how deep that really went. For all

Surfing is something that has been popular as an exciting and “way too cute” sport. It started in San Diego and spread across most parts of America and is very common in Australia as well. What is the objective of this sport? As simple as training your dog to stay upright on a surf board while catching some waves. There are many competitions that take place in California on a yearly basis and they draw crowds from all over. Our only wish is that the prize is not just a doggy treat. Cheese Rolling

Food has played a part in some sports or competitions for thousands of years and this is not very different. Cheese rolling is something that has been around for over 200 years and is still practiced in some places today. During the Spring Bank Holiday in England, people gather at the top of Coopers Hill and prepare for something very exciting. At the top of the surprisingly steep hill, a judge rolls a round of cheese down the slope and the participants follow. People try to run down the slope but quite predictably end up rolling or sliding down like the cheese. The winner of the race wins the round of cheese as well as a few bruises and scars and if they're lucky, maybe a broken bone or two.

Blind Soccer

There are millions of people all over the world that follow the fast paced sport of soccer and the numbers keep growing. It is a widely followed sport that people without the ability to see have taken to it and are doing great. Blind soccer is one sport that encourages disabled people to get out of their comfort zone and explore something that the whole world takes part in. It is pretty much like regular soccer except for the ball which is filled with pebbles(鹅卵石) or marbles(大理石),

②and the only people who do have the ability to see are the goalies. All in all, it’s a very exciting sport to watch or take part in.

四、短文综合填空：根据所给首字母、汉语或上下文语意，完成空格中所缺单词（每空限填一词），使短文完整、通顺。（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分）

As a common person living in the world, you must realize that you have options (选择权).

If I were you, I’d pack a backpack and start traveling for up to at least one year when I didn’t know what to do.

The 51 (美) of traveling is that, with little effort, it will take you out of your head - new foods, new accents and new people, so you have to pay more attention to e 52 things, such as different tastes of the foods, the wonderful sceneries, different styles of the clothes and so on.

Whether a 53 or in your own country, I’d suggest you do some v 54 work. That means w hen you don’t know what to do for yourself, go and do something for a 55 person without any payment..

__56 (除了) traveling and volunteering, something else that’s great for when you don’t give a hoot is to read.

Read just for reading sake! Not to make you a better person, to get ahead, to pass the time, to be productive. Just find anything or anyone that interests you and read about it.

Remember you are not the one feeling this s 57 of helplessness.

Life is 58 (有意义的). Stop whatever you are doing and think about your life. What is important to you? What makes you happy? Or what makes you particularly sad? These are a few places you can start again.

It may seem l ike life’s u59 because you didn't get what you wanted after giving up so much. But these failures and setbacks will renew your perspective in life. You realize you didn't really need whatever you're working so hard for. You start to 60 (珍惜) the people and the things around you. Endure the darkness because it shows you the stars.
